This is merely an attempt to bring before the people of this city the real view; point of its leading citizens: Fred F. Cassidy, President Nevada City Chamber of Commerce. It is ébvious to any well-informed citizen that we must have _ better housing facilities to take care of the over crowded conditions in both eur high school and our grammar school. Whether we receive sufficient Federal help to take care of this condition or not, the issue must be faced. I hope the voters will give the proposed bond issues unanimous. approval.

Armory Hall. It will be a long parade, and a sincere one: It will be the parade ot the students from: the Washington grammar school and the Nevada City high schoos demonstrating to the local citizens that the passing of the bond issue means something to them that it represents a real cause, an appeal that must not: go unheeded. in grammar school—all. will be there. Citizens have written about the bonds, teachers have spoken about it, and adults have made their contribution; and tonight, those who are most familiar with the crowded and dangerous conditions present in both schools will do their part. Headed by the Purple and Gold high school band, the line of march will start at Armory Hall, follow down Broad street to the Plaza, back up Commercial and over Pine to the junction of Pine and Broad where a stop will be made. The two schoor busses from San Juan and Willow . for Buildings Valley will be present with approplacards on them, the students from both places remaining in town to take part in the affair. The students from the Washington school house will march in classes and be ready with yells and stunts to add live interest to a very live issue. Miss Ford and Mr. McGinnis of the grammar school have planned to organize surprising and _ interesting entries for the parade, particulars of which will not be revealed until the actual demonstration § takes place tonight. Principals Carlson . and Kjorlie have worked diligently with the faculties of both schools in preparation for tonight’s event, and the cooperation of the students has shown their active interest in the issue. Every citizen must consider himself invited to witness this parade. It makes little difference which side of the issue one is upon, the enthusiasm of two student groups appealing for a new deal in educational facilities will’ be of interest to all. The time is seven-thirty this evening; the place is, Broad and Commercial streets from Pine down; the success will depend upon the interest of the people in the school children of Nevada City. priate Me&srs Frank Haddick and ‘Clarence Osborne enjoyed Faundren, a . . most successful fishing trip on . or ao o take advantage of . bonds in order t $ FOR Wor MY FRUIT . the government grant. . .
